Based on the story by E.T.A. Hoffman, adapted and directed by Renee Bakker with Courtney Hayes and Indea Quinn. The show is a stage retelling of performed by a cast largely made up of young performers who seem to have taken the assignment of chaos and grace equally seriously.

Follow Clara, Max and Anna as they fall through a long forgotten portal into Nutcrackerland, a place of enchanted forests, mischievous rats, sugar fuelled mayhem and one very determined Rat King. Along the way they encounter ballerinas frozen in stone, a brave Nutcracker Prince and a kingdom on the brink of trouble, and somehow come away with a life lesson they did not see coming. Light on pretence and heavy on theatrical misadventure, it is part adventure, part ballet and entirely earnest.
